Experienced Defender Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 10 hours ago, AceCream said: Does the Underlap/Overlap make sense in a system without wingers/wide players? It makes sense only as a way to slightly increase the fullback's (or wing-back's) individual mentality, but will not produce actual overlaps or underlaps because there are no other wide players within the system. 10 hours ago, AceCream said: Does the Underlap/Overlap only instruct the Fullbacks/Wing-backs to do so? OL/UL affects both the related FB/WB and the wide forward or wide midfielder. If you have only FB/WB (but no other wide player in front of him), then OL/UL will only slightly increase his mentality and nothing else. If you have only wide MF or wide FWD (but no FB/WB), the instruction will only slightly reduce his mentality and nothing else. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried a lot of things, including tighter marking and specific man marking, but I can't get them to defend properly.. Can depend a lot on attributes, my wingers have high work rate and always seem to track back even when on an attack duty, sometimes mark player or specific position helps but in most cases I don’t need to use it.

Sorry, but I don't understand this last question at all I believe the question is based on wwfan's fm guide where he suggested assigning a number of specialist roles dependent on the team shape used. I would say since team shape has been scrapped you can safely disregard the guideline of how many specialist roles to include in the team based on team shape, however you should understand the message being that in a more 'total football' style fluid system where players are asked to contribute in all phases there will be less room for specialist player simply because the system requires them to play in a demanding way, whereas in a more structured system i.e. players are expected to fulfill a specific job, there is much more scope for specialist roles such as a poacher or ball winning midfielder. So I would say don't take it as a hard-fast rule but just understand the message behind it - different styles require different skillsets/'roles' (in the literal sense rather than FM roles) from the players.

I think Rashidi's reply is very convinving Threads that seek to reintroduce the specialist/generalist distinction actually do more harm than good, because they encourage people to believe that a certain number of roles are required for specific shapes, when no such thing was ever coded into the game. The only relevant information is the number of duties we should be using. Finally there are so many generic roles now that can play as "specialists" now, for example the Raumdeutuer and the Regista, both these roles can be replicated with the use of PIs to some extent. I have already created the mid raumdeuter, one that operates from midfield Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it advisable to have more varied roles? Yes. PF-Su will be holding up play and harrying opposition midfielders, while PF-At will be attacking like an Advanced Forward, while also pressing opposition defenders. That said, PF-At does have a slightly lower starting position than AF, due to his defensive responsibilities, so if you find having trouble with penetration, maybe PF-Su and AF-At could work better. Plus, you have one striker free for counter-attacks at all times. 10 hours ago, Aksi92 said: Best PPM for him to learn to finish chances better? Given his Composure, Finishing and Technique, I'd go with Places Shots. Likes To Round Keeper could probably also work, since he's a decent dribbler with good quickness.

Zemahh Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 1 hour ago, who_is_it said: Do you change players roles according to your opponent ? It depends on how much min-maxing you're willing to do. Some people change things around for every opponent, some stick to the same tactic at all times. There's no right or wrong, really. It's generally easier to build one coherent tactic than make constant changes though, so if you're not sure you know what you're doing, it's probably better to stick with one tactic that's built around your strengths. Changing your AP to BWM, for example, could have a lot of consequences for your whole build-up play, even though it's just a single role change. That said, if you're comfortable with the tactical creator (and can be bothered doing it ), adapting to opposition can definitely be useful. Things like using a playmaker in the area your opponent vacates, using a BWM on the side of the opposition playmaker to disrupt him, using wingers against aggressive full-backs, etc. Here's an example: https://community.sigames.com/topic/486970-tactics-gymnastics-lyon/ 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squad A where no player has a player trait Squad B where players have a player trait It's dependent on the match between the trait and the style of play however the correct traits will have a noticeable impact on performance. For example in a control possession tactic having multiple players with 'Plays One-Twos' and a playmaker who has 'Dictates Tempo' will aid in build-up and chance creation. Of course traits can have a negative impact too, for example if you need a fullback to stay back and he has 'Gets Forward Whenever Possible' or vice versa (a wingback you need to provide width has 'Stays Back At All Times'). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you really know what you're doing with them I'd say yes since adding a bunch of them without understanding both what they do individually and how they will interact with the rest of the system can cause you to be a bit lost when trying to understand what's happening on the pitch. Roles, duties and mentality are much more important for setting up a successful tactic. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murcon17 Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 I am aware that there are some hardcoded differences between player roles in that it is not possible to make a CM(s) play like an RPM just by giving him the same PIs as an RPM. However I was wondering, are there also those hard differences between the same role with a different duty? I am currently trying to get more attacking movement out of my IW(S) and therefore decided to switch them to IW(A), which only adds the "Get further forward" PI to the player. Would just adding "Get further forward" onto the IW(S) achieve a similar effect than swapping the duty from support to attack or does the duty switch have a bigger influence besides the PI as it also changes the individual player mentality?
